On the subject of housing

Looks like he deleted it, but it's still cached:

I'm using a throwaway because I do post regularly to this and other subs and would prefer my situation not be linked.

I'm sitting here on Christmas morning, the only one in the house and nursing a glass of red wine as I type this out. I guess I should be clear, I realise that it was my own actions that caused my wife to leave me and not Bitcoin but it did play a direct role in leading me down the path that has brought me to where I am right now.

Several months ago I convinced my wife to allow me to redraw some of the equity in our family home. Thanks to a recent valuation we had almost $200K of approved equity available but we both agreed I would only redraw up to $50K max in blocks of $10K to buy Bitcoin.

Which I did.

Fast forward to over a week ago - Bitcoin was mooning and the FOMO was strong. I saw the price climbing rapidly and had visions of telling my wife over Christmas cocktails that we were going to buy a new car with our incredible windfall. So without her knowledge I decided to buy in with the remainder of our equity - all $150K and go long with the bulk of it. Those transactions completed several days ago and we all know what happened next.

She knew something was wrong with me because of how I was constantly checking the portfolio since the crash. Unfortunately the damage was done, I was completely REKT and in disbelief. I was tempted to leverage the BTC I had left to try and recover my losses but I knew that was just a losers game. Worst of all I had to tell my wife who had no idea what was coming.

I told her everything last night.

I won't go into the specific details but to say there was a lot of yelling, crying and screaming - all of it directed at me. I agreed to cash out what little BTC I had left and return it to the mortgage account. She packed her suitcase and called her sister who picked her up close to midnight and left without saying another word. After she left I did as we agreed, cashing out the BTC and transferring it to our account. I messaged her to say it had been done. An hour later I get a message back from her: It's over, you're reckless and stupid and I'm leaving.

I haven't slept all night. I don't think I will tonight either. I will always remember this Christmas now as the one when Bitcoin ended my marriage.

Merry Christmas everyone.

from the gbs thread, bitconnect basically a ponzi scheme that took everybodies btc and gave kid token bitcoin cash or w/e basically 10500btc->5bux bcc conversion lol

e: oops i sorta explained it badly, you basically gave them your coins for a 1% constant increase, standard ponzi stuff. Then they folded and gave everybody the 1btc:1bcc thing


it all good but heres the summary

iirc from polling if you try and split it into red team/blue team its like 60/40 or somethin, so chance are you'll run into conservative leaners on average.
